Our Creative Connection: Exploring Rochdale’s Textile Heritage

In partnership with Creative Health and Wellbeing Ltd, we explore the ancient art of weaving as a form of expression and a link to Rochdale’s rich textile past.
Through hands-on guidance, participants connect craft to culture, mindfulness, and memory—threading together personal reflection and shared heritage.

Creativity for Wellbeing

Our sessions highlight how creativity supports wellbeing.
As we weave, draw, and paint, we process emotions, spark joy, and build community, turning art into a gentle tool for healing and connection.

Colour and Community

In our nature-inspired drawing and painting sessions, participants use bold colours and flowing forms to express inner thoughts and shared stories.
The bright palettes lift moods and spark conversations, bringing a sense of energy and renewal to our creative space.

Art, Voice, and Sisterhood

During our women’s wellness session, participants design heart-shaped boards filled with affirming words that reflect strength and lived experience.
It’s a space where art meets storytelling, and we round off the day with food, laughter, and a strong sense of belonging.

Why We Keep Creating

This journey continues to unfold. Each story, each artwork, and each moment of connection becomes part of a man unfolding heritage —honouring Rochdale’s legacy while weaving new threads of creativity, care, and community.
